Counting backward on the table
Under sheets of acid rain
Pressing forward double vision
As I watch the first incision
Played the piper now it's time to collect
As I watch the drip drop drip, tick tock tick
This morphine ain't kickin' in yet
All these songs about sleep and I can't catch a wink
For the life of me just put me back down
I've gone to far and I feel nothing
I've come too far to not feel something
Body frozen flesh in wait
Leering, searing mess of pain
Nod out for a single second
Smell of smoke and right back in it
Played the piper now it's time to collect
As I watch the drip drop drip, tick tock tick
This morphine ain't kickin' in yet
All these songs about sleep and I can't catch a wink
For the life of me just put me back down
I've gone to far and I feel nothing
I've come too far to not feel something
